In an industrial process $10\, kg$ of water per hour is to be heated from $20^o C$ to $80^o C$ . To do this steam at $200^o C$ is passed from a boiler into a copper coil immersed in water. The steam condenses in the coil and is returned to the boiler as water at $90^o C$. How many kg of steam is required per hour. (Specific heat of steam $= 0.5\, cal/g^o C$, Latent heat of vaporisation $= 540 cal/g)$

  • A

    $1\, g$

  • B

    $1 \,kg$

  • C

    $10\, g$

  • D

    $10\, kg$
